Title:
Cambridge Lectures on Supersymmetry and Extra Dimensions

Abstract: These lectures on supersymmetry and extra dimensions are aimed at finishing
undergraduate and beginning postgraduate students with a background in quantum
field theory and group theory. Basic knowledge in general relativity might be
advantageous for the discussion of extra dimensions. This course was taught as
a 24+1 lecture course in Part III of the Mathematical Tripos in recent years.
The first six chapters give an introduction to supersymmetry in four spacetime
dimensions, they fill about two thirds of the lecture notes and are in
principle self-contained. The remaining two chapters are devoted to extra
spacetime dimensions which are in the end combined with the concept of
supersymmetry. Videos from the course lectured in 2006 can be found online at
